Description: This function allows the user to create a surface via the selection of a section line and a direction line. The surface is generated along the length of the direction line.
Usage:
1. DSI prompts the user to select a sweep type:
> SELECT SWEEP TYPE
NORMAL SWEEP
• The section lines remain perpendicular to the line of direction.
RIGID SWEEP
• The section lines remain parallel to the line of pattern.
2. DSI prompts the user to select a line.
> SELECT A LINE FOR THE SWEEP PATTERN
• The selected line will act as a constant cross section for the new surface.
3. Once the line has been selected, DSI prompts:
> SELECT A LINE FOR THE SWEEP DIRECTION
• The new surface will generate along the selected line and the user will return to step 2.
